Here is some food for thought: According to chicobag.com, a local reusable bag manufacturer, each year the United States consumes 30 billion plastic and 10 billion paper grocery bags, requiring 14 million trees and 12 million barrels of oil. In addition, the average American uses 300 to 700 plastic bags per year. If everyone in the United States tied their annual consumption of plastic bags together in a giant chain, the chain would reach around the Earth 760 times! Those statistics are scary if you ask me, but it starts with you and your commitment to the environment around you...
So please remember when shopping to bring your reusable shopping bags because it starts with the little things that make the big difference! You are in charge of your future and the future of our earth.
